Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives
Not that theres anything wrong with it, but it seems were losing more and more Contiques but their previous owners are still here. I just wonder out of the thousands and thousands of CEG-ers we have, what percentage are Contique onwers Well lets see if this post sheds some light on this, real easy, all you gotta do is vote


Are you a "troll"?
No
Yes



BTW, a "troll" is someone who used to own a Contique but now has gotten rid of it and still visits/posts here
No but I play one on TV.
you rang?

having been a member of this forum throughout its various shapes and forms over the years, dating back to when contour.org was just an informational website and didn't even have a forum at all, i have found it hard to just leave even though i'm now at least twice-removed from contour ownership. (CSVT --> RSX-S --> miata + jeep)

the general flavor of the crowd has changed over the years, but i'm still hanging around....
Not a troll yet, but I may be soon...

Same here, FSVT is looking pretty good right now....
yah but who's a Moderator Troll?

oh - that's ME!
Was a Focus troll for 6 mo, then back.
I won't be a troll any time soon

(see below)
Don' take this the wrong way toadster, but should we have moderators that don't own a countour, mystique, or cougar? I don't mean to stoke the fire, but I would think that it would be important for a moderator to actually be involved with the forum which he or she moderates. I dunno may just be me...
I will probaly never become a troll, Because I think I will never get rid of my Contour, ppl call me weird, but theres this sense of power, control, saftey, and the feel to it that I havnt felt in any car I have drivin, which I have drivin alot by now, Im glad I own a contour! (Which some ppl feel that is kinda strange... Which is why I probaly fit in here! )
We have many people that are trolls that are still involved with the forums just because they no longer have the car does not mean that they are not involved with the forum or that they should not be a moderator any longer.

Look at the audio forum.
dnewma04 has not had a contour in how long ?
Does that mean he does not know naything about contour audio ?

Just because you no longer own something does not mean that you know longer know anything about it.
not a troll, and dont plan on being one for a long long time, if ever.

Why three manual, 6 cyl. Contours and no SVTs? I'd post a bunch of trout slaps, but I think a real troll has us a little sick of those right now, so you get off light tonight.

I might be one soon. Depends on if the mystique will come out of the coma or not....

my father did look at some but at the times they were looking to get the first 99 we got they were a bit pricy for us and to find a unmodded one in good shape isn't easy

and I wasn't per say looking to get another car but since it has half the miles of my mystique...again price was a factor

but I really would like a SVT
The definition is off a bit.
Troll = Someone who has nothing to do with a certain board and still comes around, regardless of past ownership status. Some are welcome and some are just stalkers.

Anyway, I would be a fool to rid of my Contour as it would lose money regardless... Unless someone wants to pay me $35K+ for my car that is worth $10K... I won't hold my breath. =-)

Well put. I don't see how not having a contour make him any less involned with the site. Still spends the same amount of time and carries the same knowledge. It's all good.

Indeed, and "moderator" does not equal "subject matter expert." (Sometimes they're the same person, and sometimes not.) The moderator's job is to enforce the rules and trout-slap hostile trolls. (Friendly trolls welcome.)

How'd I become CEGer Member #9 ?

I think a better question is how I became #12! (since I reg'ed in '02)

Truthfully, I think it has something to do with when the new forums were setup and I believe you had to re-register, it may have taken THAT order as your 'member #'. Just guessing.
This is weird, the poll is still registering votes, but the graph isn't working A troll is a troll, not a bad thing, but still a troll none the less
I was a troll from July last year through March. Now I'm on my second SVT and learning from my mistakes.
Welcome back Boss
Thanks Rog!! Although I bought my second back on Mar 14th. lol
VOTE!
Come on guys your slacking a bit, VOTE yes or no
I can't vote anymore, otherwise I would. Maybe I cane register with a new SN or if I could remember my old SN/password/e-mail combo I could vote again...naw, that's too much work.

I'll be a troll once I've sold my car. My new project is already taking shape!
I'm almost a troll. Well...I guess I could be one. Still have one contour left.

--Matt
I'm a Troll
I've been on this board for a while now (even before I got my '00 contour) just reading the posts, still have the 2000 contour duratec se atx- father now drives, but own a 2003 RSX-S. Contour has a more neutral feel but lacks power in atx form.

I love both cars am I a half-ling?

Thanks for all the help over the years!

Not a half-ling at all... I think troll is al ittle deeper than that.. I think someone who still cares for, and enjoys the contique is not considered a troll, to me... a troll would be an escort/GTP/mustang/etc owner who visits and listens, in order to start *deleted*..
